Hmm, should the speech-dispatcher package than rather NOT ship an init file? Does it make sense in some setups? An when speech-dispatcher has no init file, maybe than speechd-up shouldn't "Required-Start" speech-dispatcher in its init file. Not that it matters, it still doesn't work when I do that. > I enabled this line in /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf: > CustomLogFile "protocol" "/var/log/speech-dispatcher/speech-dispatcher-protocol.log" > > /var/log/speech-dispatcher/speech-dispatcher-protocol.log stays empty > when using service (my VM is still using sysvinit-core now), but when I > use the usual start-stop-daemon command, I get this log: May it be that starting daemons via service may not have $HOME set? It occurs to me that when I start speechd-up manually I see this with "ps aux" (notice the socket location): root 22182 0.0 0.0 174708 2224 ? Ssl 19:47 0:00 /usr/bin/speech-dispatcher --spawn --communication-method unix_socket --socket-path /root/.cache/speech-dispatcher/speechd.sock By the way, with "service" it seems that configuration of speech-dispatcher is ignored. I find the logging in /root/.cache/speech-dispatcher... where it now also records what goes wrong..
